If anyone has ever played Gundam: Federation vs. Zeon, then Gundam vs. Zeta is the game for you. The title kind of throws you off but the gameplay and 3rd person view says it all. I'll list some differences between both games from my point of view. When I put "Character", it means a hero/heroine from both good and/or evil side such as Amuro + Char
DIFFERENCES
(Will say and start with Gundam vs. Zeta then Fed vs. Zeon. Detailed changes are listed below as #(number)+(plus sign))
-In Arcade and Campaign mode, "Character" voices
1+: In Gundam vs Zeta, "Character" voices are always enabled, even if two human players play or if enemy "Character" spawns. In Fed vs. Zeon, voices were disabled unless you played solo (only in Arcade as a "Character", in Campaign, you were a 3rd party pilot who is in the war and can only hear "Character" voices during the battle, your pilot does not talk at all)
2+: This is only in Gundam vs. Zeta, ALL "Character"s have the same 3 special ability you pick during the loading screen for the mission (only can choose one and activates manually in battle once the yellow bar is fully charged/flashing)
-Campaign Mode
1+: In Gundam vs. Zeta, Play a "Character" to unlock another "Character" story, actions made during the game can change story. You could also customize the mobile suits to make it a bit easier in missions. In Fed vs. Zeon, you are a 3rd party pilot during "The One Year War" throughout the whole game. Choices you make earn you different mobile suits.
2+: In Gundam vs Zeta, your "Character" against the enemy "Character" is a fair fight. The damage you do and receive are about the same when you do it to the enemy "Character". In Fed vs. Zeon, if there was a "Character" on the enemy side, their bullets and beam damage rips you apart; usually 1 to 3 hits to kill your mobile suit (Depending on enemy "Character" mobile suit, Gundam itself WILL survive a lot longer then using a normal mobile suit.) Your attacks against the enemy "Character" virtually does nothing (barely noticeable damage) unless your using Gundam, still takes awhile to take them down though and majority of the times, they retreat after sometime in the battle
3+: In Gundam vs Zeta, there is no such thing as repairing your mobile suit after a mission, it starts back at full health when you start a new mission. In Fed vs. Zeon, your mobile suits have a life bar; depending on how much damage you have received, how many missions you have completed, and the mobile suit your using, will effect repair (If you use Gundam, even if you take ZERO damage, the health bar is in red range meaning you can't use Gundam and it takes forever to repair)
-More mobile armors/giant suits in Gundam vs. Zeta.
1+: Only in Gundam vs. Zeta, some mobile suits can switch to their flying mode such as Zeta Gundam, but it only lasts until BOOST gauge is drained all the way, then you change back to human form
-The Power Gauge (The Red/Blue bar that drains on death)
1+: In Gundam vs. Zeta, if you use Gundam and die, it drains 1/2 the gauge. In Fed vs. Zeon, Gundam drains about 2/3 of the gauge. Of course some missions end if you die on your mobile suit.
It is more balanced in Gundam vs. Zeta, which is understandable since it is a better version. I love it and still play it today. The only thing that is disappointing to me is that some mobile suits have problems such as the Hyaku Skiki (when you move the mobile suit around, it moves on a angle, not the whole body facing front), and the Zeta Gundam/Gundam Mk 2 (the mobile suits don't walk, they hover, in the series and in reality, most mobile suits are walking instead of hovering).
